Notification settings let you decide what UpTrust tells you about and where it reaches you. A few minutes here means you only hear about the things you actually care about.
Where to find it: Open Settings and scroll to the Notifications section.
How it works
You'll see a row for each kind of notification, like replies, mentions, reactions, group invites, events, and direct messages. Next to each row are three columns you can switch on or off:
- Email. Sent to your email address.
- Push. A pop-up alert on your device.
- SMS. A text message, for some kinds of notifications.
Every change saves on its own as you toggle it. No need to hit a save button. Whatever you choose here, the matching alerts always still appear in your inbox on the site. These channels are the extra ways the same news can find you.
Push and SMS
The first time you turn on Push, your browser asks for permission to show notifications. Say yes and the alerts start coming. SMS needs a phone number, so if you haven't added one yet, you'll see an Add phone link to set that up first.
